They came out good/ok i think. <a href="http://www.fairycoloringpages.net/9.html">Fairy coloring page number nine</a> i like the best, lol.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Haven't found “it” in me to write, but my public awaits, so much like when Diana Ross can't face the light of day, yet puts on her best sequin gown and parades around the town with a hand up waving at the paparazzi, the other slyly fixing her messy excuse for hair....I greet you.<br />
Gratuitous Update brought to you by (3) glasses of wine:</p>
<p>•    August good.<br />
•    Almost potty trained (offspring, I mean) (I’m boasting a good 24 years dry myself)<br />
•    Dodged a plethora of storms – in both FL and friends and fam in NOLA<br />
•    Job is flipping amazing – challenged, poked, prodded, invited and intrigued on a daily basis – and couldn’t be happier<br />
•    Defined the meaning of karma<br />
•    Smitten, giddy and adored<br />
•    Decided on a signature perfume – BIG deal, I know, I know<br />
•    Need to find said perfume<br />
•    Missing friends back home more than normal<br />
•     Abusing my beach privilege by not attending every weekend<br />
•    Accepted my TV and what it has to offer by addicting myself to anything BRAVO and “Mad Men”<br />
•    Ignored the heap of clothing on my sofa and just prayed the laundry elves would help me out by hanging them for me…still waiting<br />
•    Discovered that I am NOT Italian…French actually<br />
•    Confused<br />
•    Have started the steps again to find my biological mother and am scared out of my mind<br />
•    Spent what equals a full work week, planning the offspring’s 3’rd birthday party<br />
•    Decided that I don’t take enough photographs and have made the mid year resolution to begin doing more, more often<br />
•    Fell madly in love with Ziploc Steamer Bags</p>
<p>Well… to quote my friend Ms. Ross:</p>
<p>“I think a responsibility comes with notoriety, but I never think of it as power. It's more like something you hold, like grains of sand. If you keep your hand closed, you can have it and possess it, but if you open your fingers in any way, you can lose it just as quickly. “</p>
<p>Whatever that means…I will return more often with an update….</p>
<p>J’adore<br />

<p style="text-align:center;">
<p style="text-align:center;">
<p style="text-align:center;">Deep in Acorn Wood lived young Anna, who was good;<br />
but sadly she was plain and deathly ill.<br />
Her sister's name was Jean. She was beautiful but mean,<br />
and span (to earn a penny) with great skill.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">
<p style="text-align:center;">
<p style="text-align:center;">Although she was so ill, Jean made Anna clean until<br />
her aches, her pains and sadness made her weep.<br />
Jean would treat her badly; she kicked and beat her madly.<br />
Each night poor Anna cried herself to sleep.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">
<p style="text-align:center;">Anna loved the flowers. Each day, for just an hour,<br />
she breathed and shared their soft scent with the bees.<br />
This summer was her last, for her strength was fading fast.<br />
Her spirit would soon fly with autumn's breeze.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">
<p style="text-align:center;">Anna smelled a rose. Its sweet perfume pleased her nose.<br />
she softly spoke: "My love, I share your doom!<br />
Your petals will soon fall and I hear my own grave call.<br />
But still I cry for you, my darling bloom!"</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">
<p style="text-align:center;">The flowers heard these words and within them fairies stirred.<br />
They all agreed they could not let her die.<br />
Her death would be too tragic so they used their ancient magic.<br />
Dear Anna's soul became a butterfly.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">
<p style="text-align:center;">She flutters free from pain and she's beautiful, not plain<br />
She bathes in dew and feeds from petalled bowls.<br />
Sitting right beside her spins an ugly, wicked, spider<br />
The fairies changed Jean's shape to fit her soul.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">
<p style="text-align:center;">Spiders always sigh when they meet a butterfly.<br />
They long to touch the beauty they can't share.<br />
Yet butterflies steer clear when they sense a spider near.<br />
The sight of them is more than they can bear.</p>

<p>Here's a nice etheral lavender. It has an iridescent blue flash and I stuck a couple of "Twilight" blue and lavender rhinestones on the pinkies. Make a nice blue-based lavender by mixing some opaque light blue and add red drop by drop. Apply two coats of lavender and let dry. Find an iridescent polish with some blue flash. I made my blue flash topcoat by mixing an iridescent blue pigment with clear topcoat, but any polish with a flash of blue will work. <a href="http://nevertoomuchglitter.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/img_4097.jpg"><br />

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So we've all been wanting to do this, right? I'll start with my new masterpiece? I'm really proud of it actually. I don't think we have any problems with profanity on this blog either so here it is!</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong>THE FLOWER CANDY FUCKER FAIRY</strong></p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="http://i348.photobucket.com/albums/q339/cottoncandycrabs/FLOWERCANDYFUCKERFAIRYBYDISCO-CH-2.jpg" alt="" width="442" height="547" /></p>
<p>The story behind it: My dear friend Kato asked me to draw her a fairy while we were at Otakon. Since I'm not one for fairies and elves and all that fantasy stuff, this it what I came up with. She comes into your room at night, rapes you, then you get cavities. Done with a regular old pen on sketchbook paper. I finally finished it today so I thought I'd post it.</p>
<p>A bigger version here :</p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="DE">Ich staunte nicht schlecht, als ich die Strasse entlang fuhr, wo mein Auftritt stattfinden sollte:</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="DE">Strassensperre und Shuttle-Limousinen.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="DE">Was wohl heute stattfinden würde? Die Agentur hatte es mir im Vorfeld nicht gesagt…</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="DE">Nun erfuhr ich vom einem „Kastellan“, daß der Medienpreis M100 verliehen wurde und Sektempfang und Dinner die Gäste hier im Schloss neue Kammern erwarten würde.Natürlich zu Harfen-Musik.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="DE">M100? Hatte <strong>Bob Geldorf</strong> diesen Award nicht letztes Jahr bekommen? Richtig. Und dieses Jahr hat ihn nun die</span>„Jeanne d’Arc Kolumbiens“,<strong> Ingrid Betancourt</strong>, erhalten</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">(Die frankokolumbianische Politikerin -und Präsidentschaftskandidatin- befand sich fast sechseinhalb Jahre in der Gewalt linksgerichteter kolumbianischer FARC-Rebellen-und wurde<span> </span>Anfang Juli diesen Jahres vom kolumbianischen Militär aus der Gefangenschaft befreit). Ich war sehr beeindruckt….als ich die Jury-Mitglieder-Liste sah, umso mehr:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong>Mathias Döpfner</strong>(Vorstandsvorsitzender Axel Springer AG-für ihn durfte ich schon spielen, ein<span> </span>sehr interessanter und sympatischer Mensch.), <strong>Giovanni di Lorenzo</strong> (Chefredakteur Die Zeit), <strong>Kai Diekmann</strong>( Herausgeber und Chefredakteur BILD), <strong>Hans-Ulrich Jörges</strong> (stellv. Chefredakteur Stern),<strong>Frank Schirrmacher</strong> (Herausgeber Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung), <strong>Roger Köppel</strong> (Chefredakteur Die Welt), <strong>Peter Frey</strong> (Leiter ZDF-Hauptstadtstudio), <strong>Fürst Karl zu Schwarzenberg</strong> (Außenminister der Tschechischen Republik) -um nur einige zu nennen.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Es waren auch (fast) alle dort.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">Und ich muß noch ein paar Worte über den Veranstaltungsort verlieren:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="DE"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="DE">Schloss „Neue Kammern“: das Gästehaus von Friedrich dem Großen, das ehemalige Orangerie-Gebäude gleich neben dem Schloss Sanssouci, das er 1771 für Gäste umbauen ließ.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="DE">Herrlich: Rokoko. Ich genoß es sehr, vor so wichtigen Menschen und einer so eleganten und geschichsträchtigen Kulisse zu spielen.</span></p>

<p>This is a new fairy castle - already have a few orders for this one even though noones seen it yet! Still working on a few variations of this though - think it might look better with a pink and white checks around the whole of the outside?, any suggestions welcome.<!--more--></p>

<p>A: "Stop it! It's enough already! enough..."<br />
S: "So you've heard?... I see. I at least wanted to keep this from you. I wonder why, when I understood about the sickness, that was the thing I thought the most. "<br />
A: "It's enough. You don't have to force yourself to smile anymore. You don't have to sing. Sheryl."<br />
S: "No! I'm going to sing!<br />
A: "Sheryl..."<br />
S: "I only have singing left! Only that is proof that I lived. So...I... But I'm afraid. Afraid and lonely. It's strange. Even though I decided I would live as Sheryl Nome."<br />
A: "I'll be there. If you're going to sing, then <strong>I'll be by your side until the last moment</strong>."<br />
S: "Alto... Alto... give me courage. Courage to keep me singing forever."  (<a href="http://macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=27500&#38;st=20&#38;p=652750&#38;#entry652750">Source</a>)</p>

<p>The song in the clip above is Northern Cross. </p>
<p>This is the lyrics for the song called Fairy that Sheryl sings in this episode. </p>
<p>Translated by Rick:</p>
<p>妖精<br />
Yousei<br />
Fairy</p>
<p>皆が私のことを　妖精と呼ぶ<br />
私はそれに応える</p>
<p>感じないから　心重さ<br />
だから　大空を飛べたんだ</p>
<p>あなたを知って　愛に震えて<br />
戸惑う私の羽が　むき出しで　雨に濡れて<br />
命呼び覚ました　Fly awaay　(私を呼んで）<br />
For another day　(あなたの声で）<br />
悔いることない　Just secret love</p>
<p>Minna ga watashi no koto wo yousei to yobu<br />
Watashi wa sore ni kotaeru</p>
<p>Kanjinai kara kokoro omosa<br />
Dakara oozora wo tobetanda</p>
<p>Anata wo shitte ai ni furuete<br />
Tomadou watashi no hane ga mukidashi de ame ni nurete<br />
Inochi yobisamashita Fly away (Watashi wo yonde)<br />
For another day (Anata no koe de)<br />
Kuiru koto nai Just secret love</p>
<p>Everyone calls me by the name “Fairy”.<br />
And I live up to my name.</p>
<p>I sense no heaviness in my heart.<br />
So I could fly across the vast space.</p>
<p>Ever since I came to know you, I have been quivering in love,<br />
As I stood in bewilderment, feeling vulnerable, with my wings soaked in rain,<br />
I woke up to my calling. Fly away. (Call out to me)<br />
For another day. (In your own voice)<br />
With no regrets. Just secret love.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Now I'm going to have a whinge because things have been niggling me for a while - this is for all those shops that have to trawl through the many trade shows - of which there are far too many ! - I was so disappointed with the Pulse Top Drawer show as it is supposed to be a highly selective British designery type show yet to me it was full of cr** made in China !!!  Most of the shops I supply only stock items handmade in the UK and do you know what, these shops are doing really well, maybe we're all sick of cheap rubbish that's shipped from halfway across the world with tonnes and tonnes of packaging to only end up in the bin six months later.</p>
<p><strong>So to the couple of shops that have complained to me as to why my pieces aren't individually boxed I'd have to say that it's because I care about this planet and I have no wish to contributed to the mess we are all making to it!</strong></p>
<p><strong>Hopefully people will keep my pieces for many many years to come and even pass them down as family heirlooms and not throw them in the bin after six months which is where most of the cr** sold at pulse will end up.</strong></p>
<p>Anyway , now I've got that off my chest - I think you can tell that I'm feeling very disillusioned about the whole trade show thing and might not even attend any next year , every year the prices per metre go up more and more ( can you believe that top drawer charged me £48 to store one empty cardboard box!!!)</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><!--[if !mso]&#62;--></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;line-height:150%;" align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;"><!--[if gte vml 1]&#62;                     &#60;![endif]--><!--[if !vml]--></span></strong><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;"><!--[endif]--></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;"> Aku tersesat. Aku tak tahu aku berada di mana. ‘Di manakah aku sebenarnya?’ pertanyaan ini selalu menganggu pikiranku. Aku sudah lelah. Kepakan sayapku semakin lama semakin lambat. Mungkin karena aku sudah terbang seharian dan sampai sekarang aku belum beristirahat. Bagaimana ini? Aku takut sekali. Hutan ini terasa asing bagiku. Rasa-rasanya aku hanya berputar-putar di satu tempat. Semuanya terlihat sama, bahkan langitnya juga. Sayapku terasa berat, aku tak kuat lagi menahan berat badanku. Aku terjatuh. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;">Samar-samar aku mendengar suara semak-semak yang disibakkan. Aku mendengar langkah kaki yang terburu-buru. Aku takut, aku ingin lari, tetapi tubuhku serasa mati. Aku pun menunggu apa yang akan terjadi.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;">“Sraak! Sraak!” suara itu semakin mendekat. Jantungku berdegup kencang. Tiba-tiba “Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!” teriakku. Aku melihat sosok makhluk yang tidak pernah aku lihat sebelumnya. Ia begitu besar, mungkin 10 kali besar tubuhku. Aku menangis. Aku berharap ia tidak memakanku.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;">“Kakak kecil terluka ya? Aku tadi berlari ke sini setelah mendengar sesuatu terjatuh. Rumahku dekat dari sini. Kakak baik-baik saja kan?” ucap makhluk besar itu. Aku tersentak. Aku tidak menyangka makhluk sebesar itu mengucapkan kata-kata selembut itu. Aku membisu. Aku tidak tahu mengapa. Mulutku terkatup rapat. Melihatku diam tak berkutik, mahkluk besar itu perlahan-lahan mengangkatku dengan kedua telapak tangannya. Entah mengapa tangannya begitu hangat. Setelah berada di atas telapak tangannya, aku merasakan kedamaian. Rasa khawatir, rasa ketakutan, semua itu lenyap dari hatiku, yang ada hanyalah ketentraman.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;">Aku terbangun. Aku sempat berpikir kalau kejadian yang menimpaku hanyalah mimpi, seandainya makhluk besar itu tidak menyapaku. “Bagaimana keadaan kakak? Kemarin kakak aku bawa ke rumahku. Soalnya kakak pingsan sih! Terus, kemarin aku ganti baju kakak yang sobek-sobek itu.” ucapnya. Aku bingung. Sebenarnya aku ini berada di mana? Mengapa aku bisa bertemu makhluk sebesar itu? “Kamu tuh apa sih? Kok besar sekali. Namamu siapa?” tanyaku. “Aku ini kan manusia. Namaku Rieta. Aku sendirian di sini. Justru kakak yang kecil.” Aku kecil? Mengapa dia berkata seperti itu? Selama ini aku hanya melihat orang-orang seukuranku. Semua temanku juga sama sepertiku. Sebenarnya apa yang terjadi padaku?</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;">“Kakak! KAKAK! Jangan diam terus donk! Kasih tahu nama kakak atau ngomong apa gitu!” Nama? Oh iya sejak tadi aku belum memberitahukan namaku. “Namaku Frienea. Jangan panggil kakak ya! Thanks deh buat pertolonganmu. Tapi sekarang ini aku ada di mana?” Wajahnya mengernyit. Entah apa yang sedang dia pikirkan. Sebagai seorang peri, aku memang peri yang paling malas. Aku tidak pernah serius saat belajar. Padahal teman-temanku sudah bisa membaca pikiran orang lain, tetapi aku paling-paling hanya mengeluarkan bola-bola api dan menghilang. Aku tidak tahu mengapa hidupku berubah. Aku ingat saat aku masih kecil, aku selalu berharap bisa menjadi peri yang hebat seperti ibuku. Yah, ibuku seorang peri 5 unsur. Ibuku menguasai semua ilmu yang berhubungan dengan tanah, api, air, angin, dan salju. Namun oleh Ratu Peri, ibuku Peri Soleil dinobatkan menjadi Peri Musim Panas. Aku heran mengapa cita-citaku ini lenyap. Aku lupa mengapa aku berubah. Oh Tuhan, tolong ingatkan aku!</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;">“KAK FRIENEA! Jangan melamun lagi dong! OK deh, biar aku jelasin. Aku nggak tahu kakak ini asalnya dari mana, tapi sekarang ini kita ada di bumi. Tepatnya di Hutan Pelangi. Mungkin kakak terdampar di sini. Tapi aku bisa menebak kalau kakak ini pasti peri. Iya kan!” Hutan Pelangi? Rasanya aku pernah mendengarnya? Bagaimana dia bisa tahu kalau aku ini peri? Padahal aku tidak tahu apa yang namanya manusia. Setelah makhluk itu, maksudku Rieta menjelaskan lebih rinci, ternyata di sini sejak jaman dahulu telah ada legenda tentang peri.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;">Dalam lubuk hatiku, aku masih belum bisa memahami apa yang sebenarnya terjadi. Walaupun begitu hari-hariku terasa indah berkat kehadiran Rieta. Saat aku murung, ia selalu membuatku tertawa. Rasanya aku seperti menemukan sesuatu yang sebelumnya belum pernah aku miliki. Aku merasa sangat bahagia. Aku sedikit sedih dengan keadaan Rieta, aku ingin bertanya, tetapi aku takut ia menjadi sedih. Aku heran mengapa ia hidup sendiri. Mengapa ia tinggal sendirian di Hutan Pelangi ini? </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;">Sudah 3 hari aku tinggal di sini. Malam ini pikiranku kacau, aku tidak bisa tidur. Kulihat Rieta tertidur dengan pulasnya, di atas dadanya terdapat untaian bunga yang indah yang tadi pagi kami rangkai bersama. Aku terbang ke luar rumah. Aku memandang bintang-bintang yang bertaburan, sungguh indah. Sebelum aku bertemu Rieta, aku belum pernah melihat bintang-bintang yang begitu indah bagaikan taburan permata di atas sutra biru tua. Malam ini ternyata bulan purnama. Bulannya besar sekali. Aku teringat sesuatu. Sesuatu yang ingin, bahkan sudah kulupakan. Apa? Apakah yang sebenarnya dulu terjadi sehingga aku ingin melupakannya? Aku merenung. Hal yang hampir kuingat sekejap hilang. Aku tak mampu untuk mengingatnya.<span> </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><em><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;">Hosh… hosh…</span></em><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;"> Aku terbang kencang sekali. Lelah. Aku tak mengerti mengapa aku harus melakukan hal ini. Untuk apa? Gelap, malam ini sungguh gelap. “ Oh ya, sekarang kan bulan baru!” pikirku. <em>Bruuuk!</em> Tak sengaja aku menabrak sebuah pohon besar. Karena gelapnya sampai-sampai aku tidak dapat melihat apa pun. Dahiku terluka. Pening sekali rasanya. Tiba-tiba aku mendengar desisan dan aku merasa sesuatu yang berasal dari atas pohon mendekat ke arahku. Tiba-tiba… “KAK FRIENEA! Bangun dong! Udah pagi nih!” Suara Rieta membuatku terbangun. Ternyata hanya mimpi. “Kak Frie, kok kakak berkeringat sih! Lagi pula kenapa kakak tidur di luar? Bahaya lho!” Ucapannya membuatku sadar bahwa<span> </span>mimpiku bukan mimpi biasa. Dulu…dulu sekali, rasanya aku pernah mengalaminya, sepertinya aku… entahlah aku tak mampu memikirkan soal itu. Seluruh otakku serasa mencair. Aku tak tahu apa kelanjutan mimpiku, aku tak mampu untuk menebaknya. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;">Hari ini aku tidak bergairah untuk bermain, aku terus membisu. Rieta yang membaca keadaanku lalu menanyakan mengapa aku murung dan tidak berbicara sepatah kata pun. “Aku bingung. Aku nggak tahu kenapa aku bisa ada di sini. Aku juga nggak tahu kenapa aku ada di sini. Aku bahkan nggak tahu siapa aku? Aku nggak tahu gimana caranya untuk pulang kembali ke duniaku. Mimpiku semalam bikin aku tambah bingung. Aku makin nggak ngerti tujuanku hidup di dunia ini. Apa lebih baik aku mati aja? Kalau aku mati, aku bisa merasa lebih tenang., karena semua masalahku hilang seketika.” jawabku. “MATI? MATI KATA KAKAK? Apa kakak bener-bener nggak ngerti apa tujuan manusia dilahirkan ke dunia ini? Untuk hidup. Kakak seenaknya aja bilang mau mati. Apa kakak nggak tahu gimana rasanya orang yang berjuang untuk hidup. KAKAK NGGAK TAHU YA? Kalau begitu aku salah menganggap kakak sebagai temanku. Aku salah.” Rieta berlari menuju hutan setelah mengucapkan kata-kata yang membuatku tersentak. Anak berumur 7 tahun dengan lantangnya dapat mengucapkan kata-kata yang begitu berani. Ia benar, tidak seharusnya aku berkata seperti itu.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;"><span> </span>Aku pun menunggu Rieta di halaman rumah. 1 jam, 2 jam, 5 jam, Rieta belum kembali. Aku khawatir, aku takut sesuatu terjadi padanya. Aku mulai gelisah. Aku terbang tak tentu arah. Akhirnya aku memutuskan untuk mencarinya ke dalam Hutan Pelangi. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;">Saat aku memasuki hutan, aku merasakan sesuatu yang aneh menyelimuti hatiku. Aku merasa takut. Kecemasan dan kegelisahanku semakin kuat. Aku terus terbang, aku mengikuti hati nuraniku. Entah benar entah salah, aku tidak tahu. Aku tak peduli lagi siapa aku. Aku tak peduli lagi mengapa aku berada di sini. Aku tak peduli lagi apa tujuanku untuk hidup. Hanya satu yang aku tahu saat ini. Aku berada di sini untuk bertemu Rieta. Aku berada di sini untuk menemani Rieta. Aku berada di sini untuk menjadi teman Rieta. Pandanganku terbuka. Aku semakin memahami apa artinya hidup. Aku baru sadar betapa piciknya aku. Tentang mimpiku dan berbagai pertanyaan yang menghantuiku, aku pasti akan menemukan jawabannya. Aku yakin.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;">Gelap. Padahal kemarin bulan purnama. Aku baru sadar aku sudah terbang cukup lama. Aku rasa aku sudah masuk jauh ke dalam hutan. Ketakutan dan kecemasan yang tadi hilang, muncul lagi. Bahkan perasaan itu lebih kuat dari sebelumnya. Dingin, dinginnya serasa menusuk tulangku. Aku merasakan aura yang tidak biasa. Aura ini mirip dengan aura yang aku rasakan dalam mimpiku. Aku melihat sebuah pohon besar di depanku, beruntung aku cepat menyadarinya, kalau tidak aku pasti sudah menabraknya. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;">Pohon itu pohon yang sama dengan pohon yang aku lihat di dalam mimpi. Tiba-tiba aku mendengar suara isak tangis. “Rieta?” Terdengar suara langkah kaki. “FRIENEA! Kak Frieneaaaaaa!” Ternyata suara itu memang suara Rieta. Aku terbang menyongsong Rieta. Tangan Rieta menyambutku. “Rieta maafkan aku.” ucapku. Darah, tubuh Rieta penuh darah. Apa yang sebenarnya terjadi. “Aku bertahan hidup, kak. Aku berhasil mengalahkannya. Aku berhasil.” ucapnya seraya menunjuk makhluk yang tergeletak bersimbah darah. Makhluk itu ditindih batu besar. Setelah kuamati, aku teringat akan mimpiku. Aku ingat akan perbuatan yang selama ini aku lupakan. Ternyata apa yang aku lakukan dulu berdampak amat buruk. Terutama bagi Rieta.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;">“Rieta ada yang pingin aku omongin, setidaknya saat ini aku pingin kamu tahu siapa aku sebenarnya. Aku sudah ingat semuanya.” Rieta aku sandarkan di bawah pohon. Setelah itu aku memulai kisah hidupku.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;">“Aku telah melakukan kesalahan terbesar dalam hidupku. Aku begitu menginginkan kedudukan dalam dunia peri, sama seperti ibuku. Ibuku Soleil adalah peri yang disegani. Ia mendapat kedudukan dalam 4 Istana tertinggi, yaitu Istana Musim Panas, Istana Musim Dingin, Istana Musim Gugur dan Istana Musim Semi. Karena kepandaiannya ibuku dinobatkan menjadi Peri Musim Panas. Sejak saat itu hidupku mulai berubah.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;">Sejak kecil aku selalu berusaha menjadi peri yang baik. Aku selalu belajar lebih dari yang lainnya. Aku berlatih lebih keras dari yang lainnya. Walaupun begitu aku tidak pernah bisa melebihi yang lainnya. Aku selalu kalah dari teman-temanku. Setelah penobatan ibuku menjadi Peri Musim Panas, teman-temanku mulai mengejekku. Mereka bilang aku ini pasti bukan keturunan Soleil, karena aku bodoh sedangkan Soleil begitu cerdas. Aku tidak pernah bercerita pada ibuku. Aku malu. Sebagai anak aku tidak dapat membuatnya bangga. Sampai pada suatu hari sekelompok peri mengatakan bahwa mereka tahu alasan mengapa aku begitu bodoh. Aku yang polos menuruti apa kata mereka karena keingintahuanku yang besar akan alasan tersebut.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;">Saat aku memenuhi permintaan mereka, mereka justru mengejarku sehingga aku terjatuh ke dunia ini, tepatnya ke Hutan Pelangi. Seperti dalam mimpiku, aku diselamatkan oleh makhluk yang baru saja Rieta bunuh. Ia mengatakan bahwa jika aku ingin menjadi peri yang hebat, aku harus membawa surai anak Pegasus untuk diramu menjadi jamu. Ia juga mengatakan bahwa surai itu harus dia sendiri yang mengambilnya. Maka dari itu, aku mencuri anak Pegasus milik Ratu Peri dan membawanya menuju ke Hutan Pelangi dengan cara terjun ke Tebing Cinta. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;">Setelah aku membawa Cupid, si anak Pegasus ke hadapannya, dengan kejam ia menarik surainya hingga kepala Cupid penuh luka. Saat itu aku bukannya menolong Cupid, aku justru terbang ketakutan. Aku memang pengecut. Saat itu makhluk yang bernama Saloc itu mengejarku. Cupid demi menolongku mengorbankan nyawanya, sehingga aku dengan selamat kembali ke Dunia Peri. Aku tidak tahu mengapa tapi sejak aku terbangun, aku lupa akan apa yang telah aku lakukan, bahkan kasus Cupid yang hilang pun aku seakan tidak tahu apa-apa. Aku baru sadar sekarang kalau pada saat Cupid menolongku dalam lubuk hatiku yang paling dalam aku berharap aku lupa akan semua yang telah aku lakukan. Maka dari itu aku tidak mampu lagi untuk berusaha, karena hati kecilku tahu kalau aku sudah putus asa, aku tidak mau mengingat hal yang mengerikan itu. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;"><span> </span>Aku tak menyangka bahwa perbuatanku membuat orangtuamu terbunuh, sekarang pun kamu luka-luka. Aku menyesal, aku benar-benar menyesal. Bertahanlah Rieta.” Saat itu Rieta tersenyum, “Kak Frie, akhirnya kakak menyesal. Aku nggak pernah marah sama kakak. Aku sayang sekali sama kakak. Aku udah maafin kakak kok!” Setelah Rieta mengatakan hal itu, tiba-tiba sebersit cahaya muncul dari kegelapan malam. Ternyata pintu Dunia Peri telah terbuka. Aku bisa pulang. Akhirnya aku tahu semua jawaban akan pertanyaanku. Aku ada di sini untuk mengakui kesalahanku. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;">Pintu Dunia Peri terbuka lebar untukku, tetapi kakiku tidak ingin melangkah ke sana. Aku ingin tetap berada di sisi Rieta. Akhirnya aku putuskan untuk melangkahkan kakiku ke arahnya. “Rieta!!!” Aku terbang secepat mungkin menuju Rieta. “Ayo kita pulang, akan kurawat lukamu. Aku nggak akan pernah meninggalkanmu.” ujarku. Rieta mengangguk bahagia. Aku membantunya berjalan ke rumah, saat itu juga pintu Dunia Peri tertutup. Aku sadar di sana bukan tempatku. “Rieta udah sampai. Ayo…RIETA! RIETA! RIETAAAA! Tidaaaaaaaaak!!!” </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in;line-height:150%;"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial;color:black;">Rieta telah tiada. Aku tak punya Dunia Peri untuk kembali, tetapi demi Rieta aku akan terus bertahan hidup. Ada banyak tempat di bumi ini. Aku pasti akan menemukan temapatku. Aku pasti akan mengetahui siapa aku di masa depan. Aku yakin.</span></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="left"><a href="http://mariahathaway.wordpress.com/files/2008/09/elf-portrait.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-46" src="http://mariahathaway.wordpress.com/files/2008/09/elf-portrait.jpg?w=230" alt="" width="230" height="300" /></a>Once in awhile I really get in the mood to do a fantasy painting. There is something liberating about painting imaginary subjects. It’s very satisfying to create worlds that don’t really exist. It’s like playing.<br />
I remember when I was a child, my friends and I would create the most vivid and beautiful lands in which to roam as we transformed ourselves into mighty dinosaurs or fearless space travelers exploring strange and exotic planets.<br />
Fantasy art feels a little like that. I can create whatever I like as worlds in my mind form around enchanting characters that eventually make their way onto paper.</p>
